is still in college where she hopes her marketing degree will one day
help her guide her destiny in the business. “I grew up in the middle of
nowhere in Wisconsin with my parents,” she tells The Black Star News.

learned to be true to myself. I also learned things not to do from
other people's mistakes.”

where she attends college, for two years now. “I've accomplished a few
things,” she notes, “but I've had to turn down a lot of offers due to
where I am located and my time constraints.”In her spare time, she
likes shopping, hanging out with friends, traveling, and meeting new
people. “I am a very driven, independent, fun, and creative person,”
she adds. “I have a daring personality, with a good sense of humor.”

Where She’s Heading: Once equipped with her degree,
Alexa wants to run her own business and get more into acting. Even with
her busy academic calendar, she’s already been in national magazines

possible,” Alexa says. “There are always people who try to stand in
your way and don't believe in you until you do what you set out to
do.” Alexa loves MAC and Estee Lauder makeup. “As for clothing, I
have a different style everyday—I like perfumes lotion by Victoria’s

thought I would be able to accomplish, but the best is yet to come.”
